My memory of the status cells is a bit old, but I believe there is a way to
indicate the text attribute of the current cell.
Also of use
vo-command-o Find font change
vo-command-p find plain text
vo-command-i find next italic text
vo-command-u find next underlined text
I don't believe there is a highlighted text option, but vo-HH would help you
verify.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
